Nicholas Payton Quintet with special guest Doc Cheatam

Nicholas Payton, the remarkable twenty-three-year-old trumpeter from New Orleans, wants to give us a taste of home cooking with his Gumbo Nouveau. A prodigiously gifted musician, Payton is a protégé of Clark Terry and sometime musical director for Elvin Jones - not bad references. Payton's blend of virtuosity and great integrity breathes brand new life into Bourbon Street standards. And his very special guest: Adolphus "Doc" Cheatham, at 91 the most authentic trumpeter-vocalist going and the last survivor of the Louis Armstrong era.
